Messi’s Surprise Role Could Change Everything in Argentina vs Mauritania Showdown
Argentina will continue their preparations for this summer’s World Cup with two hastily arranged friendlies over the next week.
The first comes tomorrow night against Mauritania in Buenos Aires with the second against Zambia scheduled for next Tuesday.
Argentina have had to act fast after their Finalissima clash with Spain in Doha was cancelled due to the ongoing war in the Middle East.
Instead of facing world class opposition, Lionel Messi and Co will take on two African minnows.
The new fixtures will change the dynamic of Argentina’s preparation with boss Lionel Scaloni now more likely to tinker with his team to ensure everyone is given ample opportunity to impress. Against Spain, he would have gone with his best XI in a bid to lay down a marker ahead of this summer’s showpiece in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
